        Thanks for clarifying on the warranty/model issue. Now I am feeling more secured knowing that it is the same model as the HKG/Australia. Cheers!

      • Thanks for the reply.

        It is a win-win situation if the phones are indeed covered by the Apple worldwide warranty.

        The terms in the below link still does NOT guarantee the warranty for iPhones and iPads though.

        https://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/products/ios-warranty-r…

        Caveat emptor I guess, I will remove the neg.

        Have a good day!

      I will withdraw my neg once these questions are answered.

  • did they change the warranty guide ? as far as i know the reason they don't provide warranty is because the modem chip used inside is diff so all the shops in aus carry diff modem part and they can't fix it. however i know that some ppl still manage to get it repaired by contacting apple directly. they would have to ship those part to the shop u are sending to.

  • I have emailed Shopmonk regarding the exact model e.g. A1863 and also warranty. Yet to hear back.

    Op, you dont have stock ip8+ 256gb ?

    • +1 for IP8+ 256GB

  • Well I pulled the trigger on the iPhone 8. Hopefully no issues with warranty. Apple is usually really solid on international warranty.

    • which color did u get? and what capacity (64gb/256gb)?

      • Space grey 64gb

  • Anyone looking for Apple warranty documents, here it is

    It reads:

    IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE, iPAD AND APPLE TV SERVICE.

    Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone, iPad and Apple TV to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.

    The keyword is may

  • Queue all the whingers here. Whining their question wasn't answered when all they had to do was scroll through.

    The warranty thing was posted multiple times.

  • Haven't owned an iphone since the 4s, and now ive taken another plunge with the iphone 8. Hopefully I won't regret it :D

  • can those that just ordered iphone 8 tell me their delivery date ..? if it's soonish i might be interested in getting one as well

    • I believe it was some time between the 26th of September and 3rd of October.

      • That was the message I recieved, however on the website it states Delivery between 16 to 31 Oct.

  • +1

    Any chance on getting stock of the space grey in 256gb?

  • One thing I haven't seen mentioned is that the camera shutter sound when you take a photo can't be turned off on the Japanese/Korean iphone's (not even when you mute the phone). Worth mentioning for those who it will potentially annoy the hell out of.

    • Samsung?

      • Not sure if the same limitation applies to Samsung phones.

  • my credit card (citi sig or amex edge) comes with free Extended Warranty, 12months+12months, is that mean I will have total 24 months wty??

    • Yeh wasn't sure about that either - ANZ FF black says manufacturers australian warranty specifically do not sure about that. It also means I have to pay directly with the card and not have PayPal security if something is wrong.

    I ordered a s8+ from shopmonk
    They have sent a refurbished phone with seal.open and some other brand headphones
    s8+ cover is for S8 just bad labelling.

    I tried to call their 1300 304 508 (10am to 6pm) number its engaged all the time.

    Their iphone deal has them shipping after 15Th October.

    Paypal dispute process ends by that time.

    I am just warning everyone about this seller as there are warning signs.

    They have a good reputation here which is why I got a iphone 8 as well ordered but to me it looks like they can run with peoples money.

    • okay they have refunded me for the iPhone 8 order.

      I am just going to stick to order Aus stock or Kogan.

    • thanks for that, I am going to buy local after reading that,

    • +2

      Interesting.. Now I'm having second thoughts whether to purchase one

    • Could you please send me your order number. Have you contacted customer care with your complaint?
      Sounds strange that S8 plus will be refurbished considering It has been recently released.

      • +1

        i have sent you an email about the cover sent with pictures no reply whatsoever.
        If you treat all customers equal i should have got a reply isnt it?

        I am done having to deal with grey market sellers to save 100 bucks.
        i have to post here for you to take notice imagine treatment for normal customers.

        • Ok. Order number?- can't help unless I know your order number.

    • +1

      I believe PayPal transaction can be disputed within 180 days of the transaction.

    • I was looking at purchasing one as well, but definitely having second thoughts after reading this.

      It could just be a one off issue, but still - no good that they never got back to you.

  • As a long time Android user, I am finally actually interested in an Apple iPhone. The benchmarks for the processing power have been released. The thing is quicker than a 13inch MacBook Pro. And whilst Note 8 and S8 may have new designs, in terms of raw processing power, the iPhone 8 quite simply obliterates them. Yes there are reasons for and against but you cannot fudge the raw numbers. Whether one needs MacBook Pro speeds on their phone is another story but it's there and ready for commoners to spend their $1K pocket money on.

    • Is there something you like to do on a smartphone that a Note 8 or an S8 aren't powerful enough for?

      • I'm guessing more than anything the appeal of a powerful processor is that it should last longer before showing signs of slowing down. In saying that, my partners Iphone 5C is almost 4 years old now and still runs smoothly, so I don't think it's that big of a deal.

      • Probably not to be honest but like I said, being Android for a while, maybe I just hit a point where I want to try the other side. Usually goes the way.. But the fact that much processing power can be held in the palm of your hand impresses me. Whether I actually go ahead and buy one, I don't know. I have a Nexus 6P currently and it still does all the tasks I need it to do without drama.. But hey, if we all stuck to the same phone, there would be no need for any innovation. I'm just really impressed with Apple being able to pull this much processing power off.

      • Probably only Apple A11 bionic chip can do recording 4k in 60fps or 1080p in 240 fps as for today.

  • bought Iphone Plus from Apple store…this price looks tempting.

    warranty seems dodgy..can some who already bought from shopmonk and tried warranty comment here…

    Hello Rep,
    can you please clarify the delivery date (8 Plus)? It says 16 to 31 Oct on web page but people also got 25th September 2017 - 2nd October 2017 as estimated delivery date. Thanks.

    • +1

      Please note that the delivery dates are as per the front page banner which is 16-31st Oct.

      Other delivery date is system generated and isn't right.

      • Thanks Rep, I've just sent you an follow up PM.

  • +2

    Hey Shopmonk,
    Can you confirm whether the phone is from Singapore or Hong Kong.
    You have no explicitly answered this question as you replied with the HK and Australia model number being the same. This does not help if the phone is purchased from Singapore as the warranty will not work in Australia due to different model numbers.

    Regards,
    The Speedmanman

    • +2

      Also waiting on confirmation whether the model number for the iphone 8 is A1863, the model # the rep supplied doesn't exist.

  • +2

    So shopmonk responded with model numbers, I'd like to know if we are purely getting those model numbers only. Just for peace of mind.

  • +2

    I noticed the Shopmonk rep has been posting "Model number for iPhone 8+ is A1684 same as HKG/Australia". There is no iPhone model A1684 - can someone from Shopmonk please explicitly confirm that it is a typo and that they are infact selling the A1864 model for the iPhone 8+?

    Thanks

    Any chance of stock Space Grey 256gb? iPhone 8

      I couldn't wait for the rep to reply so I bought two off dick smith eBay. Works out cheaper with cash rewards but you won't get it for an extra week or two

      • In stock now

  • +3

  • Does anyone know if they provide a tax receipt with the purchase?

    Nevermind.

  • they increased the price.

  • guys, please do a GSX check if the phone you received is 100% Guaranteed Original, Brand New Product..

    make sure that
    First Unbrick Date: is none before opening the box..

    • What is GSX check (srs).
      Is there a good reason to suspect Shopmok? :)

    This hasn't expired just yet. the 256GB is still $997.

    Can I cancel my orders via PayPal and request refund? will paypal refund me?

    Shopmonk seems pretty doggy these days, holding customer's money and cancel orders afterward

  • Have anyone received their order yet? If so when did you place your order?

    When I ordered the delivery dates were between 25th September to 2nd October. Now this date had passed and my order is still under "processing".

  • My iPhone 8 PLUS was delivered today via DHL
    Perfect unopened with US wall plug in box and an AU plug within the parcel. PART NO. MQ8F2LL/A Model A1864

    • May I ask when you ordered yours?

      • Placed on 21 September 2017 7:43:00 pm AEST
        Paid via paypal

        • WTF, I ordered on 20th September but the order is under "processing"

        • @lxstr: hmm

        • @lxstr:
          Could be due to the type and colour i ordered (8+ 64GB Gold)

        • @Mick Fox: Did they send you a shipping notification or did it just show up?

        • +1

          @ppascuzz:

    I received mine this morning. iPhone 8 Plus 64Gb Gold. A1864. Eligible for Australian Warranty til 8 Oct 2018 after checking
    https://checkcoverage.apple.com

    However, the phone box is not sealed in plastic wrap, the wrap was slit open. It got me worried first, but everything in box seems in order.
    The phone itself is wrapped.

    I ordered the Black one originally, then changed mind, was able to get to Shopmonk, they followed up my change order. Thanks.

  • fwiw, I ordered a 256gb 8 in space grey on the 27th Sept. paid with paypal

  • Any one got their iPhone 8 delivered??

    • some guys have, but there seems to be more than a few that haven't :(

    • Only reports of 8 plus' being delivered so far.

    • Just received a dispatch notice for a 64gb Iphone 8. Looks like they've finally got them in stock!

      • which colour? seems all to be Gold at the minute that are dispatching.

        • My gold 64gb iPhone 8 was dispatched last night too. Ordered 19 September.

    • My gold iPhone 8 64gb has been dispatched. The silver one still processing..

    • Got an email for dispatch for 8 plus 64gb space grey this morning

      • May I know when you ordered? Mine was on 19/09 but hasn't dispatched yet…

        • Ordered on 26th september :)

  • I ordered iPhone 8 64Gb space grey & still haven’t heard a thing since ordering on the 20th. I’ve tried calling their 1300 number over 10 times at different times during their listed business hours, over the last 48 hours, but they’ve not answered and there is no voicemail system. I also emailed them this morning and had no response yet. I’m definitely not worried, but it’s not very good business practice at all.

  • Received a dispatch notice yesterday (11/10) for a 64gb iPhone PLUS Space Gray order on 25/09!

    • iPhone 8 PLUS 64GB Space Grey arrived all good. One year warranty confirm and I already bought AppleCare online without any problems! :D

  • I ordered I phone 8 64 GB gold on the 24/09/17 still processing. :(

  • I ordered iphone 8 64gb Gold, on the 25th of september. No dispatch information yet sadly.

  • Ordered iPhone 8 64 GB Space Grey on 19/09/2017. Still says "processing". Looks like we're still on track for the promised 16-31 Oct delivery but I can't help but feel jealous of those who've gotten theirs already!

  • +2

    Received the iPhone 8 sealed with plastic wrap. Confirmed the model number is A1863

    • seriously? from Shopmonk?

      Mine is still processing :(

    • My gold iPhone 8 64gb has arrived as well. Received shipping notification Wednesday and arrived Friday. Same as you it was completely sealed and came with an Australian USB plug separate.
      Used the checkcoverage.apple.com link from above and can confirm there is 1 year of local warranty.

  • Following the link in opening post shows the iPhone 8 plus 64gb can still be ordered for $979. Is the deal still active?

    • Yes, just the iPhone 8 64GB price has increased $40, the other prices are still the same.

  • I'm hoping they receive another batch of iPhones soon I still have heard nothing about my iPhone 8 64GB ordered on the 25th September. Two others I know ordered iPhone 8 256gb space grey and theirs are still processing as well.
